Patriots follow lead of Belichick with unmatched passion for study - 14 Comments

FOXBORO — Players like to preach about work ethic. They like to harp on its importance, and they like to think they prepare harder than every other program in the NFL.

For the Patriots, they just try to keep pace with their coach, especially during the playoffs. If Bill Belichick has spent any of his time outside of the Gillette Stadium walls at any point in the last few weeks, his players don’t have any proof of it. They don’t see him leave, and they don’t see him show up.

He’s just always there.
